The scale operation is not allowed for this subscription in this region. Try selecting different region or scale option.

Hello,

I just sign up for a free trial and I'm trying to create a new service:

az group create --location eastus2 --name resGroup

az appservice plan create --name servicePlan --resource-group resGroup --is-linux --sku F1 --location eastus2

but I keep getting this error:
The scale operation is not allowed for this subscription in this region. Try selecting different region or scale option.

I tried with "westus" location as well.

Ideas please?

Thanks,

Peter

    Hi Peter,

    With free tier, you have no access to all scale option, nor to all locations.

    If "westus" works, i think the problem was you have no access to eastus2 with free plan.

    When you use portal.azure.com, it works?
